No Sweat For Singh as Marques Busts

David Salituro

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Steffen Schroeter bet 3,500 from the hijack on a flop of 6♦Q♥J♣ and Pedro Marques raised to 13,000 in the small blind. Surminder Singh called in the big blind, while Schroeter got out of the way.

Marques checked the 8♥ turn and Singh bet 25,000. Marques then moved all in for 55,000 and Singh snap-called.

Marques showed A♥Q♦ for top pair, but Singh had 10♦9♠ for the turned nut straight. Marques was already drawing dead and heading for the exit before the 9♥ sealed his elimination.

"Always nice when you don't have to sweat," a tablemate said to Singh after the hand.

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Daniel Spina raised to 5,000 from early position and on the button, Damarjaj Davenport three-bet to 12,500 and Spina called.

The flop rolled out 8♣Q♣Q♥ and Spina checked over to Davenport who bet 9,000. Spina raised to 30,000 and Davenport called.

Spina moved all in for 141,000 on the 10♠ turn to send Davenport into the tank. After a couple of minutes, the clock was called. Davenport waited until the count hit zero before calling.

Daniel Spina: 8♥8♠ All in
Damarjai Davenport: A♣A♠

Nothing changed on the 9♥ river and Spina soared up the counts late in the night.

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Manzil Adeem was under the gun with a raise of 35,000 in front of him before Peter Green moved all in for 130,000 on the button.

"Do you really have aces, sir? Holy moly, I can't fold kings in a tournament," Adeem said as he called.

Peter Green: A♠A♥ All in
Manzil Adeem: K♠K♦

"Please hold, please," Green pleaded, clasping his hands in prayer and looking up to the heavens as the board ran out 8♦3♣4♥4♠J♥ to earn him a late-night double-up.

"I get coolered like no other, every single day," Adeem said as he paid off Green, telling the table he also lost with kings versus aces at the end of Day 1 as well.

James Blazek called the preflop shove by Trevor Parks but then folded when John White moved all-in over the top.

Trevor Parks: A♣K♣ All in
John White: Q♥Q♦

"I folded the other queens," Blazek said and Parks got excited as he exclaimed "so I have a chance".

The two over cards never came on the 10♠5♠3♣9♠3♥ runout and Parks was gone during the final hands of the night as well.
